Topic: Am I missing something? (Read 828 times)

Flick here again with a great lump of glass (the thing is, the only recreational shopping I get to do here in Geneva is charity shops as everything is sooooo flipping expensive, which is why I bother you all with this stuff).

There is a "test-tube" shape in the "back" which is not enclosed making it unusable as a vase so am I missing a bit? The quality is that of another great lump (thanks to Ivo for identification of that) so it may be Zweisel.

I've just noticed there's a ruddy great chunk out of it at the top middle :x Why didn't I notice it before! I still like it though.

You'd be surprised how many times that's happened to me. I think I get blinded with excitement and don't check properly... :lol: I hope your piece wasn't expensive Flick, and at least it'll be a good lesson learned.

Flick, I can't tell you the number of times I've bought something only to get it home and find a huge chip or crack running through it. Hubby (who's got a much sharper eye for damage than I have) now has to have the quick once over on any glass I want to buy! Still, as you say, it doesn't notice on your particular piece - and unless you want to sell it on it's unimportant from a display point of view.
